Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Carrying anxiety, holding back your voice, or tending to everyone else’s needs can feel deeply lonely. If you’re stretched thin or unsure of your next step, I want you to know that you don’t have to keep doing this by yourself.
With over 30 years as a psychotherapist specializing in EFT, somatic work, anxiety, and trauma, I’ve supported countless women right at this crossroads. I’ve seen how healing becomes possible when the body is included in the conversation and the nervous system finally has room to unwind.
Together, we’ll create a therapeutic space filled with warmth, honesty, and grounded support. Using body-based tools and compassionate guidance, I’ll help you feel safe enough to explore what’s underneath—and empowered to build the life you’ve been longing for.

Allyson Stephens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I’m glad you are here. There is a reason you are here, and I understand how vulnerable this can be. It is so brave that you are here and ready to start your healing journey. My name is Allyson Stephens and I specialize in trauma informed care. I have personally healed from generational trauma and done my work in order to better understand myself and how trauma impacts the body and mind.
I am trained in trauma interventions and in the process of getting EMDR certified. I can help you explore what your body is telling you and help explore how to heal from past experiences. I can offer support through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trouble having emotions, and many more.
When you come into my office, I want you to be able to be your true self and not have to mask your authenticity. I want you to feel heard, safe, and understood. I look forward to starting this journey with you.
